Geek Media Round-Up: June 5, 2008

5 Jun 2008  Media

Art

  • Britain’s Sky One has posted a galley of technical sketches of the ships of BattleStar Galactica.

Comics

  • Newsarama finally gets down to the truth of the matter. You’ve got to be rich to support a comic book habit… at least richer than me.

Film

  • Cinematical reviews the documentary Dreams with Sharp Teeth, which follow’s the career of science fiction’s most beloved attention whore, Harlan Ellison.
  • Den of Geek has posted their picks for The 10 Worst Blockbusters Of The Last 10 Years.

Internet

  • Den of Geek has posted their picks for the Top 10 Mad Scientists, but Dr. Bunsen Honeydew get robbed, coming in at number seven.

Literature

  • Interview: The Book Show interviews Neil Gaiman, who they refer to as “the father of the graphic novel.
  • I saw this title over at McSweeney and couldn’t not read the article: What The Wonder Twins Would Take The Form Of And The Shape Of If They Were Sent To Correct The Subprime Mortgage Crisis.
  • NPR’s The Bryant Park Project on themes of race and culture in Neil Gaiman’s “Anansi Boys.”

Television

  • Charlie Jade has finally been picked up by the SciFi channel, starting Friday. It’s been available via bittorrent since its debut in Canada in 2005 and that’s where I suggest you get it, as the plot is nearly impossible to follow if you aren’t watching the episodes back-to-back.
  • Darth Mojo has written an interesting analysis of the exterior lights of BattleStar Galactica’s Demetrius.
  • Of all the shows on television, Grey’s Anatomy explains why Hans Solo isn’t a Loser for getting himself stuck in carbonite.

Video Games

  • Random House has just launched Vroengard Academy, an online roleplaying game based on Christopher Paolini’s Inheritance series.
